When Severa woke up the next morning, She couldn't stop thinking about the scream and breath. She knew she had to though. She had to help the new student get settled in. It was her duty for she was the new student's 1^st teacher of the day. Severa got up and put her school robes on. Then she grabbed her trumpet and left toward her office. She walked in and realized she was late but carried on as usual. "Hello class. I hope you all practiced `New York Minute' as I told you to. Oh, I almost forgot, we have a new student." She said grabbing the role sheet. "Mr. Ken Cyberkie? Did I say that right?" she asked a Clarinet player with a mushroom cut and kind of pinkish skin.

"Yeah." He replied. As soon as he spoke, Severa heard another scream in the same voice, that made her cringe; but this time it wasn't a tortured scream, it was a scream people give off when they're mad frustrated. However, that it wasn't an angry or frustrated scream, but the scream people give off when they're about to attack some one. About to attack her. But why did it come when he spoke? She didn't even know him.

"Professor Snake? Are you okay?" asked a trumpet player. Severa looked and saw that the whole class was staring at her worried. All except, Ken. She didn't know if he was pleased or not, but he looked like he was.

Through out the whole class period, Severa whenever Ken spoke, she heard the attack call. And after a while, she had a slight pain all over. It wasn't horrible, but it was strange and annoying. "Ok class, time to pack up your instruments." She said relieved that it was the end.

"Professor, Dumbldore told me that you would show to my next class if I asked you because I couldn't understand his directions." Ken told her. The scream came loud and long until Ken was done talking.

"Okay, let me see your schedule." She said. He handed it to her and as soon as she touched it, she felt a pain in her hand that felt as though her hand was being stabbed with sharp blade. She was looked down and squeezed her eyes tightly shut. She looked up at Ken thought she saw a grin forming on his face. The pain returned to its normal level as soon as Ken let go. "Oh, astronomy. Yeah that a hard one to find." She said as if nothing had happened. "Follow me." She said. And he did.

They finally reached the Astronomy Tower when Ken turned to her and said, "Thanks for the help." Before Severa could even think or resist, Ken grabbed hr hand and shook it tightly. This time the pain was so great that it felt like her whole arm was being shredded with blades. This time, Ken's smile was clear and broad and the same cold wind that was fighting with the warm one and first came when she approached Severus had grown to a huge Antarctic gust. Severa couldn't take it any more, and with one huge jerk, broke free of the pain, but not the gust.

"No problem," She replied in a voice that made her sound like she was caught during a hailstorm in Alaska.

Suddenly, she felt a hand on her shoulder and she instantly became warm. Then cold. Then warm. It was the breezes fighting again. Only now, they were gusts. "Hello." Said a voice behind her. It was Severus. She knew that voice anywhere. She turned around and hugged him as quickly as she could. As soon as her arms were around Severus, out of the corner of her eye, she saw the smile on Ken's face and all the pain disappear and felt her body warmth return. The only thing wrong was she heard the tortured scream and breath again, and neither of them matched up with Ken's voice.

"Severa, what's wrong?" Severus asked.

"The new student," she began, "Ken, He's evil. He was trying to kill me. An attack call came when he spoke to me, and when he was close to me or touched my, there was a flowing pain. It got weaker when you touched my shoulder and died when I hugged you. But you won't always be there and he's going to kill me." She said in the most terrified voice that Severus had ever heard.

"You better go talk to Dumbldore," Severus suggested.

"No, don't you see? It's not Dumbldore that protects my, It's you! Your what it's afraid of. You're the one it can't stand to be around."

"Still, I don't know how I'm warding this evil force off, but Dumbldore can help us find out what is so we can stop it. I'm warding it off but only temporarily, then it comes back when I'm gone. But if we can stop it, then we can actually live instead of just exist. And Dumbldore is our best bet for finding a way to kill this thing."

"Your right. Let's go see if he's gotten any answers from the last time."
